Sea Bones

(4) K-3 A couplet and an assortment of sea creatures--rendered in pen-and-ink, torn- and cut-paper, and watercolors--drift across each bright undersea spread. The rhymes (which aren't the smoothest) provide a brief overview of marine animals' skeletal variety, while a paragraph on each page expounds on endoskeletons, exoskeletons, cartilage, and creature-specific adaptations. A fact chart at the end compares eight sea creatures.
